We have BIG news, family!
We are adding to our family through adoption!
We are beyond excited and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign, as we know that this process will not be possible without love and support from our community. It may surprise you to hear that adoption related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more. This is why we have set a goal of $26,000 to help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms adoptive parents.
We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as part of the community we hope to build around our child as he or she grows up. (We won't know the sex of our little one until we're matched!)
We'll be giving you updates along the way through Ashlee's personal blog: ashleeeiland.com. Expect the first blog update during the first week of April.
In the meantime, please be praying for us - and for our third baby and his/her parents. And please consider sharing our story as you feel led. (Here's the link to our video.) Love to you all!
Peace,
Ashlee & Delwin
